the real property during that time at his or her own expense consistent with the terms of the rental or lease agreement with the department. For the purpose of establishing fair market value, the department shall obtain at least two independent appraisals from qualified appraisers.
The failure of the department to first offer excess real property as required by this section shall not affect the validity of any conveyance of this excess real property to any person or entity unaware of the failure of the department to do so. However, this shall in no way be construed as releasing the department from its responsibility in offering that property to the occupants thereof first.
